2 Basis of preparation and accounting policies

Interim condensed financial statements for the three months ended 31 March 2018 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.

Interim condensed financial statements are prepared in accordance with the accounting principles adopted for 2017 annual financial statements.

Statement of compliance

The Company's financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union (EU).

The Company meets the definition criteria of an investment entity under IFRS 10. The Company has no subsidiaries that provide services related to the Company's investment activities – therefore no subsidiaries to be consolidated – therefore the Company does not prepare consolidated financial statements.

These financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial assets at fair value through profit or loss that have been measured at fair value. The financial statements are presented in EUR thousands, and all the amounts have been rounded to the nearest thousand unless otherwise stated.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires the management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Company's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 3. Although these estimates are based on management's best knowledge of current circumstances, events or actions, actual results may ultimately differ from these estimates.

Standards and amendments endorsed by the EU that are effective for annual periods beginning on 1 January 2017

Disclosure Initiative - Amendments to IAS 7

The amended IAS 7 require disclosure of a reconciliation of movements in liabilities arising from financing activities. Reconciliation of movement in liabilities arising from financing activities is presented in Note 8.

The standards and amendments endorsed by the EU that are effective for annual periods beginning on 1 January 2017 had no significant impact on the Company's financial statements and operation results.

Standards endorsed by the EU that are not yet effective and that have not been early adopted by the Company

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018) Key features of the new standard are:

• Financial assets are required to be classified into three measurement categories: those to be measured subsequently at amortised cost, those to be measured subsequently at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) and those to be measured subsequently at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL).

• Classification for debt instruments is driven by the entity's business model for managing the financial assets and whether the contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI). If a debt instrument is held to collect, it may be carried at amortised cost if it also meets the SPPI requirement. Debt instruments that meet the SPPI requirement that are held in a portfolio where an entity both holds to collect assets' cash flows and sells assets may be classified as FVOCI. Financial assets that do not contain cash flows that are SPPI must be measured at FVPL (for example, derivatives). Embedded derivatives are no longer separated from financial assets but will be included in assessing the SPPI condition.

• Investments in equity instruments are always measured at fair value. However, management can make an irrevocable election to present changes in fair value in other comprehensive income, provided the instrument is not held for trading. If the equity instrument is held for trading, changes in fair value are presented in profit or loss.

The Company has not early adopted any new standards, amendments and interpretations endorsed by the EU after 1 January 2016 that are not yet mandatory. The Company does not expect these standards will have significant impact on the Company's financial statements and results of operation except for IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement"

The Company accounts for its investments at fair value under IFRS 10 and does not expect significant impact of the adoption of IFRS 9 for its financial assets. The Company, after transformation to closed-end investment company (Note 1) will be liable to account for success fee if certain threshold is met. The Company measures such liability at fair value (Note 2.9) and with application of IFRS 9 the Company will be required to present the effects of changes in own credit risk of financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss in other comprehensive income.

IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018) The new standard introduces the core principle that revenue must be recognised when the goods or services are transferred to the customer, at the transaction price. Any bundled goods or services that are distinct must be separately recognised, and any discounts or rebates on the contract price must generally be allocated to the separate elements. When the consideration varies for any reason, minimum amounts must be recognised if they are not at significant risk of reversal. Costs incurred to secure contracts with customers have to be capitalised and amortised over the period when the benefits of the contract are consumed.

The amendments do not change the underlying principles of the standard but clarify how those principles should be applied. The amendments clarify how to identify a performance obligation (the promise to transfer a good or a service to a customer) in a contract; how to determine whether a company is a principal (the provider of a good or service) or an agent (responsible for arranging for the good or service to be provided); and how to determine whether the revenue from granting a licence should be recognised at a point in time or over time. In addition to the clarifications, the amendments include two additional reliefs to reduce cost and complexity for a company when it first applies the new standard.

According to the management's opinion, the standard will have no significant impact to Company financial statements.

IFRS 16 Leases (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019).

The new standard sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases. All leases result in the lessee obtaining the right to use an asset at the start of the lease and, if lease payments are made over time, also obtaining financing. Accordingly, IFRS 16 eliminates the classification of leases as either operating leases or finance leases as is required by IAS 17 and, instead, introduces a single lessee accounting model. Lessees will be required to recognise: (a) assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value; and (b) depreciation of lease assets separately from interest on lease liabilities in the income statement. IFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in IAS 17. Accordingly, a lessor continues to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases, and to account for those two types of leases differently.

According to the management's opinion, the standard will have no significant impact to Company financial statements. The Company has no leases income or cost. The Company does not intend to adopt the standard before its effective date.

There are no other new or revised standards or interpretations that are not yet effective that would be expected to have a material impact to the Company.

These amendments did not affect The Company's 2018 three months financial statements.

3 Accounting estimates and judgements

3.1 Judgements

In the process of applying the Company's accounting policies, management has made the following judgements that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in these financial statements:

Investment entity status

The management periodically reviews whether the Company meets all the definition criteria of an investment entity referred to in Note Error! Reference source not found.. In addition, the management assesses the Company's business objective (Note REF _Ref162436391 \r \h \* MERGEFORMAT 1), investment strategy, origin of income and fair value valuation techniques. According to the management, the Company met all the definition criteria of an investment entity throughout all the periods presented in these financial statements.

Recognition of the Success fee and the Management Fee

The Company elected to use fair value model for the recognition of the success fee and the management fee portion payable upon first payment of the success fee. Payment of the success fee is subject to the future events and involves the use of valuation techniques and unobservable Level 3 inputs, such as long term growth rates, discount rates for the estimation of the current value of financial liability which are reviewed periodically to ensure reliability. Details of the inputs and valuation models used to determine Level 3 fair value are provided in Note 4.

3.2 Accounting estimates and assumptions

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.

The significant areas of estimation used in the preparation of these financial statements is discussed below.

Fair value of investments that are not traded in an active market

Fair values of investments in subsidiaries that are not traded in an active market are determined by using valuation techniques, primarily earnings multiples, discounted cash flows and recent comparable transactions. The valuation techniques used to determine fair values are periodically reviewed and compared against historical results to ensure their reliability. Details of the inputs and valuation models used to determine Level 3 fair value are provided in Note 4.

4 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique:

Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly;

Level 3: techniques which use inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data.

The Company's financial assets at fair value through profit or loss included assets attributed to Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The Company has no Level 1 or Level 2 instruments.

The Company conducts an independent valuation of its investments in subsidiaries when preparing the annual financial statements. As at 31 December 2017, the valuation was carried out by Deloitte Verslo Konsultacijos UAB using the income approach. In the opinion of the management, the fair value of investments was determined appropriately using the inputs and ratios properly selected and reasonably reflecting the investments. The fair value of investments was determined in compliance with the International Valuation Standards approved by the International Valuation Standards Council. For the income approach, the discounted cash flow method was used. It was based on free cash flow forecasts made by management for the period of 5 years. Free cash flows were calculated as net operating profit after tax plus depreciation and minus change in working capital and capital expenditure.

At the end of the three months of 2018, companies managed by INVL Technology were measured at their fair value using the same method that will be used after the Company becomes a closed-end investment entity. The fair value of the companies, controlled by INVL Technology, at the end of 2017 was estimated by an independent appraiser Deloitte verslo konsultacijos UAB. Market conditions and other preconditions used in the valuation did not change significantly during the first three months of 2018. Therefore, when preparing preliminary operating results for the three months of 2018, the Company measured fair value of investments using the end of 2017 value adjusted by the net profit or loss and payments to the Shareholders that occurred during the period, except for entities acquired/established during 2017 which are stated at cost.

The fair values of the Company's unconsolidated subsidiaries were as follows:

Total: 20,808

The fair value was based on discounted cash flow method, which was selected by the external valuator as the best representation of the company specific development potential, except for FINtime UAB, where net assets value method was used. Different method was selected as because as of current moment the entity does not expect to generate significant free cash flows. Sensitivity is not applicable as no variable inputs were used. Due to the limited number of comparable companies and transactions, lack of reliability of the market data and limited comparability of peers, the results of the guideline public companies and transaction methods were used as a supplementary analysis and were provided only for illustrative purposes in valuation report.

Cash flow projections made by Company management for the period of 5 years (2018-2022) were used as a basis in the income method. Free cash flows were calculated as operating profit after tax plus depreciation/amortisation of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, plus or minus changes in working capital and minus capital expenditure. The resulting value was adjusted by discount for lack of marketability and the amount of surplus assets/liabilities. As part of the valuation process, valuator had analysed items presented on the balance sheet of each company and had identified assets and liabilities, which can be treated as surplus assets (e.g. net working capital above normalised level, non-operating cash balances, loans to related parties) and debt/debt like items; all of which were adjusted when arriving at equity value of the company.

In the opinion of the management, the fair value was determined appropriately using the inputs and ratios properly selected and reasonably reflecting the investments.

All receivables past due but not impaired were receivables from subsidiaries. In the opinion of the Company's management, these receivables were not impaired since the Company has full control of cash flows of subsidiaries and there were no restrictions on transfer of the above-indicated balances to the Company. If necessary, the Company was able to collect these amounts in cash, offset them against the amounts payable to the subsidiaries, or capitalise them as an additional contribution to the share capital of the subsidiary.

Credit quality of receivables neither past due nor impaired

As at 31 December 2018, receivables neither past due nor impaired amounting to EUR 51 thousand were receivables from the subsidiaries which had no debts overdue as at 31 March 2018.

As at 31 December 2017, receivables neither past due nor impaired amounting to EUR 39 thousand were receivables from the subsidiaries which had no debts overdue as at 31 December 2017.

As at the reporting date, for receivables from subsidiaries neither past due nor impaired there were no indications that the debtors will fail to fulfil their liabilities in due time, since the Company has full control over the cash flows of the subsidiaries and there are no restrictions on transfer of the above-indicated balances to the Company. The maximum exposure to credit risk as at the reporting date is equal to the carrying amount of each group of receivables indicated in the table above. The Company holds no collateral as a security.

7 Reserves

As at 31 December 2017, the Company's reserves consisted of the reserve for acquisition of own shares amounting to EUR 9,800 thousand and legal reserve amounting to EUR 354 thousand. The reserves were formed upon appropriation of the Company's result for the year.

The reserve can be used only to cover the accumulated losses.

Reserve for acquisition of own shares

Reserve for acquisition of own shares is formed for the purpose of acquiring own shares in order to keep their liquidity and manage price fluctuations. It is formed from profit for appropriation. The reserve cannot be used to increase the share capital. The reserve is reduced upon annulment of own shares. During the ordinary general meeting of shareholders, the shareholder may decide to transfer the amounts not used for acquisition of own shares to the retained earnings. The Company's management did not have a formally approved programme for buy-up of its own shares as at the reporting date.

14 Management fee and Success fee

Management fee recorded in the profit (loss) represents management fee paid quarterly to the Management Company.

Amount of financial liability, related to the portion of the Management fee payable with the Success fee and the Success fee, as of balance sheet date, was estimated as follows:

  • Financial liability, related to the Success fee payable, was estimated using Monte Carlo simulation method, using weighted 5 year EBITDA growth and long term growth rate used in valuation of the investments (Note 4) and discounted using weighted average cost of capital (Note 4). Each value was weighted based on value of respective investment as of balance sheet date;
  • Financial liability, related to the portion of the contingent Management fee payable with the Success fee, is set to zero, if financial liability, related to the Success fee payable, equals to zero; otherwise, financial liability is calculated as the Management fee (Note Error! Reference source not found.) and discounted using the same rate as financial liability, r elated to the Success fee payable.

The table below presents the inputs and the fair value valuation techniques (Level 3) for the calculation of financial liability and the sensitivity analysis to changes in the inputs used:

Name Fair value,

21 Financial risk management

21.1 Financial risk factors

The risk management function within the Company is carried out by the Management Company in respect of financial risks (credit, liquidity, market, foreign exchange and interest rate risks), operational risk and legal risk. The primary objective of the financial risk management function is to establish the risk limits, and then make sure that exposure to risks stays within these limits. The operational and legal risk management functions are intended to ensure proper functioning of the internal policies and procedures necessary to mitigate the operational and legal risks.

The Company's financial liabilities consisted of trade and other payables. The Company has various categories of financial assets, however, the major items of its financial assets were financial assets at fair value through profit loss consisting of the investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries and cash and cash equivalents received.

The Company is being managed in a way that its portfolio companies are operating independently from each other. This helps to diversify the operational risk and to create conditions for selling any controlled business without exposing the Company to any risks.

The Company's business objective is to achieve medium to long-term return on investments in carefully selected unlisted private companies operating in information technology sector. The goal of the Company is increase value of its investments with the purpose to sell the investments at the end of this life (Note 1) earning adequate return for the shareholders and success fee if applicable (Note Error! Reference source not found.)

The main risks arising from the financial instruments are market risk (including foreign exchange risk, cash flow and fair value interest rate risk and price risk), liquidity risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. The risks are described below.

Credit risk

Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, outstanding balances of trade and other receivables, and outstanding balances of loans granted.

With respect to trade and other receivables neither past due nor impaired, there were no indications as at the reporting date that the debtors will fail to fulfil their liabilities in due time, since the Company constantly reviews the balances of receivables. The Company has no significant transactions in a country other than the countries of domicile of the subsidiaries and their investments. All receivables of the Company are from subsidiaries, and their settlement terms are set by the Company itself. With respect to credit risk arising from other financial assets of the Company (consisting of cash and cash equivalents), the Company's exposure to credit risk arises from default of the counterparty. The maximum exposure to credit risk was equal to the carrying amount of these instruments:

Assets with no credit rating assigned At 31 March 2018 At 31 December 2017
Trade and other receivables - -
Loans granted, interest 51 39
Cash and cash equivalents 4,891 5,030
Total current assets 4,942 5,069

The Company accepts the services from the banks and the financial institutions which (or the controlling financial institutions of which) have been assigned a high credit rating by an independent rating agency. As at 31 March 2018 the Company's cash balances were held in the financial institutions which have not been assigned individual credit ratings, but the controlling financial institutions of which have been assigned "Prime-1" rating by Moody's agency.

Interest rate risk

In 2017 September AB LUMINOR granted 1,953 thousand EUR to the Company loan. Bank loan margin is 3.5%; Interest is variable, calculated and paid each month last day.

The Company is exposed to market interest rate risk, primarily due to liabilities subject to variable interest rates.

The following table uncovers the sensitivity of the Company's net profit to reasonably expected changes in floating interest rates (EURIBOR), and does not change all other variables (considering the impact on loans with a floating interest rate). There is no influence on the Company's equity, except for the effect on the profit of the current year.

2018 Increase in base points Company
thousands. EUR +50 (3)

At 2018 March 31 the EURIBOR interest rate was negative and therefore, according to loan agreement terms it is equivalent to zero.

Price risk

The Company's investments are susceptible to price risk arising from uncertainties about future values of the investments that are not traded in an active market. To manage the price risk, the Investment committee reviews the performance of the portfolio companies at least on a quarterly basis, and keep regular contact with the management of the portfolio companies for business development and day-to-day operation matters.

As at 31 March 2018, the fair value of the Company's investments exposed to price risk was EUR 20,480 thousand (31 December 2017: EUR 20,808 thousand).

Liquidity risk

The Company's policy is to maintain sufficient cash and cash equivalents or have available funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet its commitments at a given date in accordance with the strategic plans.

Liquidity risk of the Company is managed by the Management company. The liquidity risk management is divided into long-term and short-term risk management.

The aim of the short-term liquidity risk management is to meet the day-to-day needs for funds. Each subsidiary is independently planning its internal cash flows. Short-term liquidity of the Company is managed through monthly monitoring of the liquidity status at the Company.

Long-term liquidity risk is managed by analysing the cash flow projections by taking into account the potential sources of financing. Before approving a new investment project, the Company evaluates the possibilities to attract the required funding. Based on monthly reports, the Company makes projections of monetary income and expenses over the next one year, thereby ensuring an effective planning of the Company's funding.

The Company's financial liabilities based on undiscounted contractual payments consisted of:

Up to 3 Over 5
months 4 - 12 months 2 to 5 years years Total
Loans to credit institutions with interest 261 - 1,810 - 2,071
Other current liabilities 117 - - - 117
At 31 March 2018 378 - 1,810 - 2,188
Loans to credit institutions with interest 17 292 1,810 - 2,119
Other current liabilities 112 - - - 112
At 31 December 2017 129 292 1,810 - 2,231

The company has no liquidity problems and there are no expectations that they will arise in the foreseeable future.

Foreign exchange risk

The Company has no material exposures or transactions in currencies other than euro, therefore it is not exposed to foreign currency risk.

21.2 Fair value estimation

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company carries investments in subsidiaries at fair value, please refer to Note 4 for more details.

The Company's principal financial instruments that are not carried at fair value in the statement of financial position are cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, as well as trade and other payables.

The carrying amount of the cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, as well as trade and other payables of the Company as at 31 March 2018 approximated their fair value because they are short-term and the impact of discounting is immaterial.

21.3 Capital management

The Company's primary objective when managing capital is to safeguard that the Company will be able to maintain a strong credit health and healthy capital ratios in order to support its business and maximise returns for shareholders. The Company's capital management is conducted through supervision of activities of individual subsidiaries to ensure that their capital is sufficient to continue as a going concern. Management of entities oversee to ensure that the subsidiaries are in compliance with the capital requirements defined in relevant legal acts and loan contracts, and that they provide the Company's management with the necessary information.

The Company's capital comprises share capital, share premium, reserves and retained earnings. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and risks specific to its activity. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may issue new shares, reduce share capital, and adjust the dividend payment to shareholders.

During 2018, no changes were introduced in the objectives of capital management, policies or processes.

The Company is obliged to keep its equity ratio at not less than 50 % of its share capital, as imposed by the Lithuanian Law on Companies. As at 31 December 2017 the Company complied with this requirement.
